Double Leaf Door

Drip cap on frame

When you need access to large openings, we recommend double leaf doors for ease of use.

The drip cap is mounted on the upper horizontal frame, and directs running water away from the face of the door to assist with weather resistance. This option is not available on fire rated panels.

Louvered Door

Drip cap on frame

Some access door styles can be manufactured with a louvered door to provide ventilation in special applications.

Gasketing can be applied to the doorstops of the frame to provide weather resistance and reduce airflow between the door and frame.
